You could make an argument for several.   Lewis.   Kuath.  Jones.   Kolek.   OMP got it started.

Kur Kuath

+1

Everyone was great. Justin just as deserving and neck and neck with Kur for their overall game.

For my money Kur. Defense was the main difference and the tone was set early and often with Kuaths interior dominance.

Glad to have him.

Kur.
After PC made its first-half run and closed the lead to four, MU went on a 15-0 run in which Kur had two points, two boards, an assist and five (!) blocks.

We don't get many 23-point, 11-rebound performances and Lewis also played very aggressively most of the time, so I'd go with Justin ... but if any of the others mentioned were to be selected, that'd be A-OK with me.

We have played much of our best ball this year when Kur is on the court. I love Oso, but Kur is a game changer. I will say if again, he knows how to block shots and it creates opportunities. Previous shot blockers were game changing, IMO.

Absolutely. Oso has been one of the most delightful surprises on the team this year, yet he’s still not the difference maker that Kur is when Kuath is playing well, and that says a lot.

If Kur can rub off on Oso when it comes to his uncanny knack for fantastic interior defense, especially blocking and/or altering shots, look out.

My wife, who goes nuts on MU hoops, gets so pissed off she decided she was bringing negative karma and went to bed. She was proved correct as MU went on a 20-0 run.

Similar to a previous game, if you take the whole 40 min. into consideration, it's Justin.

But the guy who broke their spirits was KK. He had a concentration of blocks when they were trying to get back into it.

My vote would be for Justin, for realizing  that his game is inside the arc.

I would encourage some of you to take a look at the stat line from the 5 position tonight.   These two guys are quite capable when they're involved in the offense.

Wish we had that combo for longer than this season.

Shaka now just has to bring in one other guy in that same mold to either complement and split time with Oso or just learn from him.
Hopefully Itejere can become the next Kur.

I’ll go with Kur.

This win was all about the defense, and Kur’s interior defense completely demoralized them. He took Watson totally out of the game and changed PC’s offense.

And they didn't have a single post up.

Lewis. His dunk set the tone and they never looked back. Plus 23 points, 11 rebounds, and 2 assists including a sweet one to Oso for a dunk is nothing to shake a stick at.

I want to give it to Kur but the 4 fouls kept him off the floor for over half the game. But he made the most of the minutes he got.

Lewis.  Pomeroy agrees but the entire roster (with minutes) ALL hit triple figures in efficiency.

Kuath, his D set the tone.  Can't argue with Lewis, either.

Lewis. What a great performance from a number of guys though.
